situation room and then on the homeland security council staff we learned a lot of lessons from hurricane katrina. those were written down. congress was a part of that process. what we learned you have to precoordinate assets. you have to be sure that you're on a video teleconference with the state emergency operations centers, with fema, with the department of energy, making sure that all those resources are ready to go, prestaged, ready to go into the affected area once the storm blows through. in many cases that will increase response time. the federal government says you have to be able to sustain yourselves for about three days and federal support will come to you. in this case it did not. 12 days later we're still without power in many locations. in our case we didn't have fema on the ground until eight days after the storm. tracy: a lot of people on long island without power. a lot of people in new jersey still without power too. at this point, unfortunately there is nothing we can do except wait. what do we do to prevent this happening next time though? should wires be all underground goi
